Depositor
Depositor Name: O.D. Madsen
Institution: Hagedorn Research Institute
Deposit Date: January 23, 2006
Depositor Notes: This antibody recognizes the C-peptide (aa 33-63 of proinsulin) which separates insulin B chain (aa 1-30) from insulin A chain (aa 66-86) in the proinsulin protein (minus signal peptide sequence). Stains C-peptide in mature granules and proinsulin in immature granules of islet beta-cells. The antibody does not cross-react with rodent C-peptide/proinsulin.
